On the anniversary of the very funny, panic-inducing Boston Mooninite invasion, several local artists spread LED art all over Boston on Thursday. This time with a disclaimer.
Ahh, New York. State government continues it’s quest to unearth every non-taxed dollar. Once again facing a looming deficit by their own mismanagement, the latest budget cycle included a new law to tax successful internet businesses that don’t have any physical stores or employees in New York. Our beloved state would never let something like…
With the Borders at Quaker Crossing progressing right along, today comes this announcement of Barnes & Noble building a new store at the McKinley Mall. The proclaimed world’s largest bookseller will open its first Southtowns store sometime in 2007, officials confirmed Wednesday. It was also noted that it will be the only Barnes & Noble…
Props to Chris Byrd for being the first over to the Terminal to get a shot of our new blacktop! Now I can officially go get new shocks for my car!

I also really enjoyed the sunset skyline shot and night lites shot. Very good shots Derek from what looks like an amazing place to visit.
